View source for File:Godgames' Gathering of Goodness 2001 calendar with Oni.jpg

== Summary ==
This relic of a bygone era in gaming was a [[wikt:cheesecake|cheesecake]] calendar that Gathering of Developers seems to have published for a very brief period (I can only find evidence of a 2000 and 2001 calendar). The idea was that a key target demographic would be happy to pay for a CD-ROM full of game demos if it came along with a bikini calendar ("free demos and an occasional bikini" promises the CD jacket, which also contains a behind-the-scenes video about the calendar shoots). Oni was "lucky" enough to be featured for February 2001, the month after its release. The modeling photos are unrelated to the games they are combined with; the unknown model "Miss February" is not cosplaying as Konoko in the schoolgirl attire at bottom-right.

The copy on the right reads:

{{Quote|Miss February may be tattooed, but she doesn't know what it truly means to be a marked woman. Konoko knows only too well. It is 2032, and she is a respected member of the elite "Tech Crimes Task Force." As she goes deeper and deeper into the dangerous underworld of a brutal criminal Syndicate, she slowly begins to uncover the mysteries of her buried past. She will discover not only the terrible secrets of the underworld, but also the frailty of her own identity. And unfortunately, that there is no one she can trust.

"Playing Konoko is like being the star of an intense anime action thriller," explains Joseph Staten, Bungie's Product Manager. "From moment to moment, Oni is all about action – infiltrating well-guarded installations, and using guns and martial arts moves to take out wickedly intelligent AI opponents. But all this fast-paced gameplay takes place in the context of a dark, engrossing and very cinematic story."

Oni promises the smooth feel of a shooter, the visual richness of broad (?) third-person perspective, and the frenetic combat of a fighting game, all combined for a uniquely satisfying gaming experience. Konoko uses a vast arsenal of fighting moves – including kicks, punches, throws, and combos – to deliver the hottest 3rd person Action Game of the Year.  The captivating storyline and fluid animation create an immersive and breathtaking world unlike anything you have ever known.}}

The pull quote below the month grid says, "Oni has one of the freshest approaches to the 3D shooter we've ever seen" and is attributed to Computer Gaming World. Bungie's logo is at bottom-left and the official website for the game, oni.godgames.com, is at top-right.
